Eventually he would like to see a Canada-wide professional soccer league but he says the day when that could come to pass is still far off in this part of the country. "J don't think it would pay at the moment. You'd have to get several thousand people out to every game to support a pro league."

"He says you couldn't get a true picture unless six different people counted shots at each game, and that wouldn't be practical." Andrews says he doesn't want to burden hockey with statistics to the extent of baseball's rec: ord books, He will, however, give the NHL some new twists. For, inside his briefcase are statistics the NHL never both- ered to keep.

Correspondent to The Oshawa Times LONDON -- Already it is ap- parent that there is going to be a tough battle for the champion- ships in the top two divisions of the English League. In the First Division, there is not a single team with full points from their first three games, are Leicester City and Manchester. United, both unde- feated but with one draw, and joint leaders. Manchester United showed that they are to be a force to be reckoned this season by administering a sound 5-1 thrashing to Everton, the reign- ing champions. This was a shat- tering result, and the genius of Scottish international Denis Law was _ eaaparent in the two splendid goais he scored. Leicester City hammered a weakened Arsenal team 7-2 in a@ game in which Arsenalg' goal- keeper McClelland had his col- lar-bone fractured after 23 min- utes of play, and centre for- ward Joe Baker went into the goal, thus nullifying: Arsenal's attack. To make matters worse, their outside right Skirton, had two ribs broken in a crashing tackle, but gamely played on in spite of his painful injury. These handicaps were too much for Arsenal to overcome, although Eastham played heroically in effort to stem the tide of hing defeat. SPURS NEW STYLE Tottenham Hotspurs have adopted a continental 4-2-4 style captain, Danny Blanchflower, now in his 37th year, is-slowing| down, but is still a past master at marshalling his side.
